Despite its ubiquity, little is 18 known about the extent to which its diversity reflects neutral processes like migration and drift, 19 or environmental filtering of life history strategies and adaptations. In two temperate forests, we 20 investigated how phylogenetic diversity within Methylobacterium was structured by 21 biogeography, seasonality, and growth strategies. Using deep, culture-independent barcoded 22 marker gene sequencing coupled with culture-based approaches, we uncovered a previously 23 underestimated diversity of Methylobacterium in the phyllosphere. We cultured very different 24 subsets of Methylobacterium lineages depending upon the temperature of isolation and growth 25 (20 °C or 30 °C), suggesting long-term adaptation to temperature. To a lesser extent than 26 temperature adaptation, Methylobacterium diversity was also structured across large (>100km; 27 between forests) and small geographical scales (<1.2km within forests), among host tree species, 28 and was dynamic over seasons. By measuring growth of 79 isolates at different temperature 29 treatments, we observed contrasting growth performances, with strong lineage- and season- 30 dependent variations in growth strategies. Finally, we documented a progressive replacement of 31 lineages with a high-yield growth strategy typical of cooperative, structured communities, in 1 bioRxiv preprint doi: https://doi.org/10.1101/2021.06.04.447128; this version posted July 7, 2021.

Together our results show how 34 Methylobacterium is phylogenetically structured into lineages with distinct growth strategies, 35 which helps explain their differential abundance across regions, host tree species, and time. This 36 works paves the way for further investigation of adaptive strategies and traits within a ubiquitous 37 phyllosphere genus. 38 39 Abstract importance 40 Methylobacterium is a bacterial group tied to plants. Despite its ubiquity and importance to their 41 hosts, little is known about the processes driving Methylobacterium community dynamics. By 42 combining traditional culture-dependent and –independent (metagenomics) approaches, we 43 monitored Methylobacterium diversity in two temperate forests over a growing season. On the 44 surface of tree leaves, we discovered remarkably diverse and dynamic Methylobacterium 45 communities over short temporal (from June to October) and spatial scales (within 1.2 km). 46 Because we cultured very different subsets of Methylobacterium diversity depending on the 47 temperature of incubation, we suspected that these dynamics partly reflected climatic adaptation. 48 By culturing strains in lab conditions mimicking seasonal variations, we found that diversity and 49 environmental variations were indeed good predictors of Methylobacterium growth 50 performances. Our findings suggest that Methylobacterium community dynamics at the surface of 51 tree leaves results from the succession of strains with contrasted growth strategies in response to 52 environmental variations. 53 54 Acknowledgments: FRQNT (funding), NSERC (funding), Canada Research Chairs (funding), 55 NSF (DEB-1831838), Geneviève Lajoie, Dominique Tardif, Ariane Lafrenière, Hélène Dion- 56 Phénix, Yves Terrat, Kenta Araya (help for sampling), Sylvain Dallaire (help for phenotyping 57 screen), Sergey Stolyar (discussions), Gault Natural Reserve (McGill University), Station 58 Biologique des Laurentides (UdeM), Centre d’Étude de la Forêt (CEF), QCBS. 59 60 Author contributions : J.B.L., E.S.L., D.C.M., G.B., B.J.S. and S.W.K. planned fieldwork and 61 the experiments.

Although exposed to harsh conditions, like UVs, temperature 80 variations and poor nutrient availability, the phyllosphere arbors a diverse community of 81 microorganisms, of which bacteria are the most abundant (1). A key challenge in microbial 82 ecology and evolution is understanding the evolutionary and ecological processes that maintain 83 diversity in habitats such as the phyllosphere. Bacteria living in the phyllosphere carry out key 84 functions including nitrogen fixation, growth stimulation and protection against pathogens (1–3). 85 At broad spatial and temporal scales, bacterial diversity in the phyllosphere varies as a function 86 of biogeography and host plant species, potentially due to restricted migration and local 87 adaptation to the biotic and abiotic environment (4–6), leading to patterns of cophylogenetic 88 evolutionary association between phyllosphere bacteria and their host plants (7). Whether those 89 eco-evolutionary processes are important at short time scales, as microbes and their host plants 90 migrate and adapt to changing climates, is still an open question (8). Another challenge is to link 91 seasonal variation with plant-associated microbial community dynamics, as shifts in microbial 92 community composition are tighly linked with host plant carbon cycling (9) and ecosystem 93 functions including nitrogen fixation (10). More generally, we understand very little about how 94 the ecological strategies of phyllosphere bacteria vary among lineages and in response to 95 variation in environmental conditions throughout the growing season (9, 11). 96 97 Phylogenetic signal in traits or suites of correlated traits that are used as indicators of the 98 ecological life history strategy of microbes suggest niche adaptation (12), and these phenotypic 99 traits influence the assembly of ecological communities through their mediation of organismal 100 interactions with the abiotic and biotic environment (13). Recent work evaluating the 101 phylogenetic depth of microbial trait evolution has shown that many microbial phenotype traits 102 exhibit phylogenetic signal, with closely related lineages possessing similar phenotypic traits, 103 although the phylogenetic depth at which this signal is evident differs among traits (14). Most 104 comparative studies of microbial trait evolution have focused on broad scale patterns across 105 major phyla and classes (14), although some studies have found evidence for complex patterns of 106 phenotypic and genomic evolution within microbial genera interacting to determine patterns of 4 bioRxiv preprint doi: https://doi.org/10.1101/2021.06.04.447128; this version posted July 7, 2021.

  • Diversion and Phylogenetic Relatedness of Filterable Bacteria from Norwegian Tap and Bottled Waters
    Diversion and phylogenetic relatedness of filterable bacteria from Norwegian tap and bottled waters Short title: Filterable bacteria in Norwegian tap and bottled waters Colin Charnock*, Ralf Xue Hagen, Theresa Ngoc-Thu Nguyen, Linh Thuy Vo Department of Life Sciences and Health, Oslo Metropolitan University, NO-0130, Oslo, Norway *Corresponding author. E-mail address: [email protected]. ABSTRACT Numerous articles have documented the existence of filterable bacteria. Where filtration is the chosen method of sterilization for medicinal or media components, these bacteria will by definition render products non-sterile. They may further represent a health hazard to the end user. A wide-range of bacterial genera were found in bottled and tap water filtrates from 0.2 µm filters, including genera housing opportunistic pathogens (e.g. Methylobacterium) and endospore formers (Paenibacillus). Two municipal tap water isolates were only distantly related to named species. One of these grew on agar, and could potentially provide hitherto unharvested useful biological products. The other grew only in water, and failed to produce colonies on media targeting either heterotrophs or autotrophs. The present study is one of very few looking at filterable bacteria in bottled waters intended for human consumption and the first identifying the filterable portion. It extends the range of known habitats of filterable bacteria and provides data on two new or novel species. Key words │bottled water, filterable bacteria, new species ©IWA Publishing 2019.

  • Characterization of Bacterial Communities Associated
    www.nature.com/scientificreports OPEN Characterization of bacterial communities associated with blood‑fed and starved tropical bed bugs, Cimex hemipterus (F.) (Hemiptera): a high throughput metabarcoding analysis Li Lim & Abdul Hafz Ab Majid* With the development of new metagenomic techniques, the microbial community structure of common bed bugs, Cimex lectularius, is well‑studied, while information regarding the constituents of the bacterial communities associated with tropical bed bugs, Cimex hemipterus, is lacking. In this study, the bacteria communities in the blood‑fed and starved tropical bed bugs were analysed and characterized by amplifying the v3‑v4 hypervariable region of the 16S rRNA gene region, followed by MiSeq Illumina sequencing. Across all samples, Proteobacteria made up more than 99% of the microbial community. An alpha‑proteobacterium Wolbachia and gamma‑proteobacterium, including Dickeya chrysanthemi and Pseudomonas, were the dominant OTUs at the genus level. Although the dominant OTUs of bacterial communities of blood‑fed and starved bed bugs were the same, bacterial genera present in lower numbers were varied. The bacteria load in starved bed bugs was also higher than blood‑fed bed bugs. Cimex hemipterus Fabricus (Hemiptera), also known as tropical bed bugs, is an obligate blood-feeding insect throughout their entire developmental cycle, has made a recent resurgence probably due to increased worldwide travel, climate change, and resistance to insecticides1–3. Distribution of tropical bed bugs is inclined to tropical regions, and infestation usually occurs in human dwellings such as dormitories and hotels 1,2. Bed bugs are a nuisance pest to humans as people that are bitten by this insect may experience allergic reactions, iron defciency, and secondary bacterial infection from bite sores4,5.

PhoD and PhoX alkaline phosphatases and AcpA acid phosphatase are produced by microorganisms in response to phosphorus limitation in the environment. In this thesis, the current knowledge of the prevalence of phoD and phoX in the environment and of their taxonomic distribution was assessed, and new molecular tools were developed to target the phoD and phoX alkaline phosphatase genes in soil microorganisms.
